VACUUBRAND BVC Basic Fluid Aspiration Systems are designed for safe, efficient aspiration of biological and chemical liquids in laboratory environments. These systems connect easily to an existing vacuum source—no electrical connection required—and feature a robust, chemical-resistant mechanical vacuum controller that ensures optimal working vacuum, minimizes vapor load on your vacuum network, and reduces evaporation of collected liquids.
Key Features:
- Mechanical vacuum regulator with integrated check valve ensures stable vacuum operation (100 to 500 mbar).
- Operates without electricity—ideal for connection to vacuum networks (e.g., VACUU·LAN®) or existing pumps.
- Stable base design keeps the system securely in place during use.
- Includes VacuuHandControl (VHCpro) hand set with flow-through suction tube to prevent handle contamination.
- Integrated inlet tubing in bottle head minimizes aerosol and foam formation, prolonging protection filter life.
- Hydrophobic 0.2 μm sterilizable filter reduces contamination risk to your vacuum system—entire unit autoclavable with bottle.
- Available with a choice of autoclavable collection bottles: 4L polypropylene or 2L coated borosilicate glass.
- CE-compliant, with protection class IP 54 for safe operation in lab settings.
